NOTES
3.10 Tempo.
The overall global tempo of the project can be set between the dened
range of 10 - 400 BPM. Note that the MIDI clock input may also control the
Play+ global tempo. Equally Play+ can be a master clock for other MIDI
devices. Tempo can also be set per track, relative to the global tempo in
multiples or divisions.
Track Tempo Divider / Multiplier Options
1/1 Default for all tracks i.e. equals global tempo.
Examples and Notes:
Global Tempo 120 BPM, Track 1 Tempo multiplier 2/1. Track 1 will play twice as fast
as other tracks i.e. 240 BPM. Track 1 will play a 16 step pattern twice for every 16
step cycle as other tracks.
Global Tempo 120 BPM, Track 1 Tempo divider 1/2. Track 1 will play at half the
speed i.e. 60 BPM of the other tracks. Track 1 will play 8 steps of pattern where
other tracks play 16 steps.
Global Tempo 120 BPM, Track 1 Track Tempo ‘Pause’. The Paused track playhead
will stop on the active step. This would be step 1 when initially pressing [Play]. This
has several uses, but one example is that when a track is paused, the note step
samples can be played manually by holding (Screen) + Tapping the note steps.
